It's official!

I know it's been way way too long but trust me, we've had a lot going on. Brief recap...

It's football season, which means craziness at home and the office! We've had several friends in town since August - high school friends, sorority sisters, cousins and family, the list goes on. Lots of tailgating going on here in Knoxville, despite the few wins. Seth and I even got to run through the T before the Cinncinatti game a few weeks ago. Once in a life time experience. AMAZING!

On the field before the game!

At work, we've opened up two new locations (West Virginia and Missouri) and did a big remodel of one of our Knoxville locations! Busy but oh so exciting! But the most exciting (and stressful) thing of all is that Seth and I bought a house! After a flooding crisis and temporary homeless state, we are moved in. Boxes are there that is, unpacking in the midst. 


So the good news for you is that I should have no shortage of things to blog about. Time to do so is another story. But we have several projects vying for our attention. Where to begin? Could it be the green countertops in the kitchen, the two layers of wallpaper in the master bathroom, or the dreadful chandelier in the dining room. Sounds terrible, huh? But let me tell you, we couldn't be more thrilled. More projects, pictures and posts to come!

Running through the T

I feel a little guilty writing this because I know my husband can do it so much more justice. But recently we had a once in a lifetime opportunity for any Vol fan. We got to run through the T before a football game in Neyland Stadium. As fundraisers for the athletic program, Seth's great aunt and uncle have had the opportunity to participate in pre-game festivities before. When they were offered the chance again this year and couldn't go, they asked us to take their place. Of course!!!
 Before the game we got to spend some time on the field. I was a little nervous about tripping in front of 100,000 people on the field. But everything was wonderful!

Can you spot us? I have turned the corner and Seth is slow trotting, taking it all in and about to round the corner. It's definitely an adrenaline rush and so hard to put into words. It's still hard to believe that we actually got to participate in such a long-standing UT tradition that so few people get to do. Thank you so much Dwight and Ann for allowing us the amazing opportunity!
